It's crawfish season in New Orleans and you know what that means - time to indulge in some of the tastiest, healthiest seafood around! Here are five reasons to love mudbugs.
🦐 Low carb - also protein rich
🦐 Zero saturated fat - so yes, it’s cholesterol-friendly (or at least neutral)
🦐 High in vitamin B12 - essential for healthy nerves and blood cells.
🦐 High in the antioxidant selenium - this mineral helps protect against cell damage
🦐 Low calorie - just 100 cals per 3-ounce serving.
But wait! There's a catch. Typical boiled crawfish are very high in sodium. Crawfish naturally, however, is not. So go easy on the seasoning, whenever possible.
